One Memory

Last night I organized my external hard drive up. There are too many photos inside and they all mess around. Sometimes I find it is difficult to organize those photos well in one place. Anyone can teach me a proper way to keep photos?

I came across one folder. It was 3 years back and I opened it up. I looked through the photos within that folder and I understood it was superb.

Can spot me? I am just right beside my trademark. Gosh, I truly look young that time. Now move your eyes sight a little bit to the left. Spot a celebrity? Yes, that's him, 黄品冠.

Na, you may go like.. Cheh` 黄品冠. What's so big deal. He's not Jay Chou. Then you're as bullshitting as some of those inside that photos.

I remembered the time when I was the BOSS of the music club and the school called me up. "Richard, 黄品冠 wants to come to our campus. Your music club handle ar." Freak me the FOOT up. No choice man, I got to do as school instructed the club to handle.

I gathered the team together. They damn bullshitting and demotivating around. **Yamn, lame people. By the end of the day, they came and take photos together.

That's me. Hiding within the divider. I can't talk well. Plus, I am the BOSS. So I sit behind there and controlling the PA system. No worry. Not everyone is bullshit. Some people really supportive.

Like him. He is my good helper. For 2 shows, he was with me, both Pin Guang and Karen Kong. Emcee surely I dump to him la.

The girls. Damn good as selling DVDs/CDs. Appreciated their help too. They are with me most of the time.

And trust me. NOT all celebrities are ego. I find Pin Guang are truly FRIENDLY. And he impressed me with his guitar skills. He has 1x years of guitar experience. Demonstrated his skills and I had my jaw opened wide.

Damn good.

It was not a super huge event. However, I was glad enough. Glad not due to the successful of the event. It was due to the contentment I happened to see on the faces of Pin Guang's fans. Some people wanted to see their favorite celebrity but never have a chance.

From here. The fans are having zero distance with their favorite celerity. So many fans happened to bring their hand-made HUGE cards and WAVE around for Pin Guang.

It contented me for what I have done. Eventually I blessed the people.

This is awkward. Usually we don't really see celebrity is given a token of appreciation to come. However I did it that way. I understand being a celebrity is not easy. They are facing issues like pirated DVDs/CDs or MP3 around the internet.

It was actually a UTAR mug. But it is not simply a mug. I set up a booth at canteen. Whoever passed by my booth, I pass him/her a paper. Write a line(s) of supportive message and put it inside the mug.

I couldn't remember how many I manage to gather. But it was a LOT. I believe it's good enough to keep Pin Guang keeps moving onwards.

Support Malaysian celebrity!

D R E A M

Everyone has a dream. You don't dream, you're not motivating. I have a lot of huge dreams in my mind. Sometimes it goes too huge and I can't find a way to talk it out. People would think that I have over-day-dreaming.

Whatsoever it is, whoever who demotivate me, they are just rubbish. So am want to reveal a very small dream of mine this year. It's one of my resolutions, actually. I keep close track to my resolutions status this year.

So far resolution no.1 is achieving 16.7% while resolution no.2 is achieving 33.3%. There are some more resolutions which still remain no progress.

Am revealing my resolution no.2. Yes, that is my resolution no.2. I long want to buy that lense for my toy. Please do not get me wrong. I don't do professional. Just simply an upgrade to my gear.

Am not from a rich background family. And I understand how difficult money is earned. For now, I'm in Kuala Lumpur and it's even more difficult to save cash. I am saving every single bit I can and I am glad that it is achieving 33.3%.

It doesn't matter whether it's a slow progress. So long as my dreaming is always BURNING and that's my way of doing thing.

So why am I write about this. Simple, to MOTIVATE myself to push harder. Since the world knows this and if I happen to fail, that's embarrassing. I don't accept that and I do only no.1 in "game".

Learning 1: Sprinkler System

My learning no.1: the sprinkler system. This is to jot down things I learn. It may be brief.
1. Sprinkler system is one of mechanical services for fire protection.
2. Sprinkler system comes in single layer or double layers depending on the building design.
2.1 Whenever there is ceiling, a lower and upper or double layers sprinkler system applies.
2.2 If there's no ceiling, single layer or upper sprinkler system applies.
3. The typical design for sprinkler heads distance is 4m x 3m apart from each other.
3.1 The distance from the wall shall be 1.5m.
4. Sprinkler heads connect with the range pipe.
4.1 Range pipe branch out from the distribution pipe.
5. Range pipe size is determined by the number of sprinklers.
5.1 Distribution pipe size is determined from the number 18th sprinkler head and onwards.
5.2 Calculation need to be done for distribution pipe to determine its size.
6. Never to have pipes run through the rooms like EE, MDF, DATA.. as these rooms contains lots of electrical components/equipments.

I shall take a closer look at it when I confront the real things in real life.

Ambrose n' Connie

A quick short and simple post dedicate to Ambrose n' Connie.

This is aint easy. I woke up by 4.45am to prepare myself. Mao, Cat and Tian Ya were waiting for me at Tune Hotel by 5.30am. Tired me.

I dropped Whitney n' Cat at Connie's house while together with Mao and Tian Ya, we went to Ambrose's place to get ready.

Surprised me. I saw many of his brothers were there earlier than us. 3 of us sat on the sofa to take a real quick nap. Ambrose truly took long to come down. Perhaps busy make up upstairs inside the room.

His mother prepared us good breakfast. We took our time eating to gain enough energy before head to Connie's house helping Ambrose to fight for his wife.

I am skinny. I can't help much.



All things were set and we left for Connie's house by 7.30am. The girls were waiting by the main gate for us. The real battle began.

I happened to enjoy myself pretty much. Ah Mao and Tian Ya, both of them could make enough fun and noisy around. Burst into laughter non-stop. Need not to say, by the end of the day.. the boys surely win the game. However, pity the guy's wallet`...

This is the moment for Ambrose. The moment in his life.. to open the door of a room. He saw a lady sat on the bed.

Woots` She's beautiful but mysterious. Let's play guess...

Who is the bride. The one on the left, middle or the right? That's obvious. LoL`... The one on the left, that is.

0.o?!

Everyone was so happy with their big smiles on face. And in our Chinese tradition, we served tea.

The bridegroom and the bride serve tea to the elders while the youngs serve tea to the bridegroom and the bride. This is a mean of respect.

The elders give red packets or jeweleries to the bridegroom and the bride. Red packets are given to the young my the couples. Interesting Chinese culture.

Everyone went to the church after that to witness the "Yes, I do" moment. Our pastor from KL, Ps. Dennie Lau conducted the session. He sure is powerful. 2 sessions in a week in 2 different places, Sibu n' Kuching.

Now they are officially.. husband and wife. Whitney and I took the opportunity to take a photo with them together. This is a day worth to remember.

That's all about it. A real simple. My photos will do the most of the story telling, by the way. Really can't write much. My brain is exhausting due to too much work loads.

works, works, works...

A Filler

First, Song Mao n' Ah Cat
Second, Zhen Jian n' Karen
Third, David n' Priscilla
Forth, Ambrose n' Connie

I noticed that I never write a post about their weddings. Reason is simply because I'm lazy and.. too many photos to tidy up.

Photos are the issue. I gave up when there are too many photos.

I'll do one for Ambrose n' Connie this time. I took slightly less photos this time. So it doesn't give headache to me. By the way, I am always this unfair.

I like Ambrose n' Connie more so I write a post about their wedding.

Happy Time Ends Quick

It is just like having beer with buddies.

Happy time indeed ends quick. So sadly, I am in Kuala Lumpur once again. Everything is rather fast here. I drive car faster. I walk faster. I eat faster. I talk faster.. BUT when I work, the time is SLOW. =.=

I truly enjoy my stay at home this time. Home to me is sweeter for now, to me. Maybe it is because I have started working and I don't have so much time to go home like I used to be as a student last time.

Sad time.

Favorite

my bad. my camera could not get the color tone right. otherwise, this would be one of my favorite photos.

I'm going to attend another wedding ceremony/dinner tomorrow. two in a week. And my wallet..

s u f f e r s.

F R I E N D s

It is an excitement when someone is still remembering you after 10 years. Perhaps, I have never changed. Still as skinny all along the way.

I left Sibu when I was Form 2. Ever since then, I lose contact to 99.9% of my friends. Besides, attending wedding in Sibu, I contacted an old friend, Vincent (second from the left).

I paid a visit to his house and together with him, I happened to meet up many other friends around. Surprisingly, no one forgets me.

They saw me with their mouth and eyes wide opened,.. "Riichhaarrdd..???`"

My bad, I couldn't remember some of them. Whatsoever it is, they are my friends, still. Friends whom I experienced true joy, laughter, tears and love. I treasured them.

... Only I realized I took only 2 photos. =|

I Do

I have come back from Sibu. To me, that was the greatest experience in Sibu, the marriage. David was my course mate for three years. Plus, he's my brother in Christ as well. For 3 years, we "fought" for our degree.

We copies each other assignments. We help to signature each other attendance when one is happen to absent. We slept. We lunch. We laughed.. A lot more.

And we graduated last May 2009. And, 16.02.2010, Tuesday.. he married.

How could he find fast cash? Oh, never mind. I bless him sincerely. Who's next.

Status: Away

I am leaving for Sibu tomorrow, 15.02.2009 until 17.02.2009. For ten years, I stay in Kuching. This is the second times I'm going Sibu during Chinese New Year period.

For 2 main purposes:

1.) To receive as many red packets as possible there, and
2.) To attend David's wedding dinner

Incredible Comfort

Today is my 5th day at home. The longer I happen to stay here, the urge to remain staying grows. So the home is really the sweetest place, huh.

Home sweet home.

Home is not just sweet. It gives me the incredible comfort. It is as comfort as I sink my feet into that. It provides, also me incredible rest. 8 days to go before I am leaving for Kuala Lumpur again. doh` =.=

It's Chinese New Year tomorrow. Appreciating the reunion dinner later.

Her Masterpiece

Look at what my sister wrote on the white board.

竹 is bamboo in English. She's saying I'm as skinny as a bamboo. Well, I would say she's as skinny as a pair of chopsticks.

I want to gain weight.

L M A O.

I Care... Not

See what see!!! No doubt, I am in my hometown, Kucing for now. Supposedly, my flight is on Saturday. Purposely, I re-booked another ticket and I flew back, 9th so earlier than anyone else. What a Just-Do-It spirit.

Sometimes just don't hesistate for too long. It makes life worse. Go for it. And I am a lot happier to have plenty of time at home.

Only home gives me true relaxation.

My Freakiest 2010

January 2010 has just over. How are everyone's resolutions. I am glad enough my first resolution is achieving 8.33%. While my second resolution, it's still remaining 0%. However, I am working it out. Announcing it when it has reached the result of that at least 35%, to my standard.

The title tells "My Freakiest 2010". So far I can tell that my freakiest experience in 2010 was..

the Thaipusam festival which so massively held at Batu Cave. That was my first time. I remembered when I was young, I learnt that Indians celebrate Thaipusam. What is Thaipusam anyway not until I saw it myself last Saturday.

The Batu Cave was jam packed with believers, tourists and photographers. Surprisingly, not only Indians celebrate Thaipusam. Very minority of Chinese celebrates it too. Perhaps some photos to tell what believers do during Thaipusam..

1.) They shave their hair to bald, both children and adults. The photo shows how the hair is actually been shaved. A very classical way of shaving.

2.) Some poked their skins with huge, sharp hooks. That was truly freak me out. I could feel the pain inside my skin. Alright, that's not the freakiest part yet.

The freakiest part is.. there's one person pulling the strings attached to the hooks behind. When the person with the hooks on tries to walk, the person at the back.. pull`...

3.) That is the second type of way. It's still dealing with the huge, sharp hooks but this time without anyone pulling behind. The hooks just hang on the skins. I wonder what is containing inside the small pots. Fresh milk?

4.) The 2 and 3 are small. The one above shows the bigger one. That's not the biggest one yet. There are even bigger one. Still, there are lots of hooks poked into the skins.

5.) Every believers is carrying pots which come in different kind of size. Some are big and some are small.

I guess that's all about the photos. I still have plenty of them but I don't bother to upload all of them. Know what.. Know why..

People are taking photos. I, too was taking photos. But my photos are truly bad. I happened to view so many photos taken inside some forums. How could they actually take such a good photos.

Ish`..
